I have a 2001 Dakota SLT Extended Cab 4x4 w/ 4.7L V8 auto. I am going to be in need of tires soon, and was wondering what the correct size for my truck is. I bougth the truck used, 2 1/2 week ago. The tires on it now are 255/65/16. Is that the standard stock size? What size tire is the computer set for from the factory? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx for your time,

Chris

 

that could be the right size. call up the dealership with your vin if its that big of a deal. generally everyone on here goes to bigger tires. factory size tires IMO dont fill out the wheel well enough. 30x9.5R15 filled out my wheel well nicely without going to drastic in size to change the speedo and make my v6 wonder work any harder than it already does.

 

i thought the stock size was 225/75/15 or 235/75/15

 

it should be on a sticker in the door jam on the drivers side, or at least both mine and my dads are

 

hes on the factory 16 inch rims

i wouldnt go by that sticker. my truck came factory with the 235/75r15's, yet the sticker in the door jamb said 225/75r15.

 

agreed. and walmart wont service your truck either..they can only put on what the sticker says. idiots.

I'm also on oversized.255/70-16 I do believe.

 

call a dealer, give them the last 8 of your VIN# and they can tell you what size yours came with from the factory..

i have the dealer build sheet for my truck so i know exactly everything i could ever wonder

 

Mine had 31x10.5r15 when I got it, the door says 235s are the right size....
